[Watch] The Teaser Of Varun Dhawan-Janhvi Starrer ‘Bawaal’ Has Created A Stir; Know Why

New Delhi: The just-released teaser of Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming film Bawaal has created a stir on social media. The teaser posted by Prime Video India shows the lead pair, Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, in what seems to be a gas chamber from Nazi Germany.

Bawaal is a story of star-crossed lovers. Janhvi’s character voiceover claims she should’ve been able to love Varun’s character before it was ‘too late.’ The last shot of the teaser suggests what she may be hinting at. It seems the two call out to each other but are separated by a tense crowd. Then, viewers see a man close to what looks like a gas chamber. He appears like he’s from Nazi Germany, suggesting that the two lead characters’ story plays out against the Holocaust.

On the other hand, some users defended the film as well. They said one has to trust Nitesh Tiwari’s sensibility as a filmmaker, given his track record, and wait for the film to release first, before jumping to conclusions.

Nitesh Tiwari has previously helmed the blockbuster Dangal and the National Award-winning buddy film Chhichhore, starring Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor among others.

Bawaal is co-written by Nitesh Tiwari, Nikhil Mehrotra, Piyush Gupta, Shreyas Jain and Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari. It is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala’s Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. It will premiere directly on Prime Video India on July 21.
